Lake Chelan Fun Times


Getting the party started with some music and dance moves by Payton!

These two had so many fun times in Chelan!


Loving boat life with Auntie Toni-Day 1 we were out on water within the hour of arriving!

Kneeboarding the first day since Uncle Jared was at work and couldn't be there to teach them how to wakeboard.

Finding spots along the river to Cliff Jump! The boys loved it!



the hosting couple...thanks for such a wonderful time!

New mommy enjoying life!

Cashy hanging on the kneeboard

Getting a wakeboard lesson from Uncle Jared
And he was up! Great job Nick!

Concentrating and thinking about all Uncle Jared told him...
Payton's turn...and he was up right away too!

Fun + Uncle = Funcle Jared (he named himself Funcle!)

Enjoying Baby Payton



The 4 year old wakeboarder! Amazing!

Fun with cousins!

Cash doin' his own thing! Where is that kid's parents? lol
Huddling under the umbrella as the weather is turning VERY quickly to a raging storm with hail-like rain and ferocious winds...the big boys were out on the boat wakeboarding and we were cursing them, waiting for them to get back. I just kept saying to the kids: Isn't this so fun? What an adventure this is! How exciting!


When they finally pulled up they saw our unhappiness...it took us 3 boat loads to get everyone and EVERYTHING back to the boat launch...of course we were the LAST boat on the river.

Luckily their friend Ray stayed and waited to help all of us get off the river.

Home, safe and sound, after the big storm.

Our attempt at a cousin picture!


And then came the Girl's Wine Tasting Tour...(after the boys had golfed in the morning, we went wine tasting)

At the first winery...


One of my favorite wineries on the tour...great story about how it came to be!

on the last day we spent the day at the water slide park. it was a perfect size for families with all ages of kids. Both Dom and Gianna went on the bigger slides and Dom went by himself! We didn't even have to force him-this was an amazing day in the life of us!!

I had to put this picture because this is the look of: "I'm going to do what I want even though you are telling me something else Mom." I see it often!
Payton was re-enacting my scream when I had gone on the Purple Haze ride. They boys found it hilarious that they could hear me for so long!

What a wonderful trip-filled with such fun times, lots of laughter and love.
